A Run For Their Money

The small village ground was crowded, all were there to see the two Australian fast bowlers who were guests on the visiting team.

The village captain won the toss and decided to bat, which was a poor decision on his part. In the first over one fast bowler took all six wickets. The second over produced one run and the fall of the remaining four wickets.

'It must be disappointing for the crowd,' said one of the village players.

'Yes,' agreed the captain, 'but at least they got a run for their money.'
